Vaccines have re-entered the mainstream of American politics again this week, and that's because Donald
Trump signed an executive order which is calling for fewer vaccines to be given to American children.
It's just the latest attempt from the White House to try and change the way the vaccine
schedule is administered in the United States because, according to the president, it's been putting children in danger.
And I saw this early on, and I've seen proof of it,
where they have a vaccination that looks like the size of a bottle of soda.
Poured into a little child's body.
And bad things happen in too many cases because this is an explosion.
This is an epidemic.
Now, Donald Trump's claims are in many cases factually inaccurate and without evidence,
but they are something he has stuck to for years and years and has been trying to push through as policy,
despite the fact his own advisers are deeply worried about this ahead of midterm elections
because it's not something that polls well at all.
So why is he so determined to try and push through these changes when it could cost?
